As PCB designs become more sophisticated and design cycles shrink, more and more departments play an influential role in the final design. CADSTAR’s extensive on-line libraries have more than 230,000 ready-made parts and are updated and expanded constantly. The ready to download and use parts contain all the information a designer requires, including manufacturers' part numbers.


CADSTAR OnLine Library

• CADSTAR OnLine is an extensive library of more than 230.000 parts created in native CADSTAR format.
• The ready to download and use parts contain all the information a designer requires including manufacturers’ part numbers
• As default for the CADSTAR software, this library is updated and expanded

Database Integration

• CADSTAR also supports Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) integration with links to ODBC databases such as MSQL Server and
  Oracle.
• CADSTAR’s OLE interface to MRP, ERP or e-PLM systems, allows the designer to store CADSTAR library data directly into these ODBC databases, making the management of components into your CADSTAR design a smooth, versatile, and quick process

Version Control

• Verify in one overview if the parts, components, and symbols used in the design are the latest version available from the component library
• Control your library management for parts, symbols and components
• Update component versions in old designs manually or automatically
